I regularly use Alt+Shift to change input languages. On my Linux box (kubuntu 15.04) pressing Alt+Shift results in the Rocket.Chat menu item being open in addition to changing the input language. As a result I have to press Alt+Shift, Esc to continue the input (which is slower and not a habit).

This might be an Electron issue, I haven't tested with other Electron apps. I haven't tested on Windows either.

I think this should be an Electron issue. I mean it is not rocket.chat who opens menu on Alt press.

Just a note - I can't reproduce it with any of the other menu elements or with other key combinations including Alt (or Alt alone).

Atom also based on electron and does not have this problem. It's really annoying, anybody has a solution?

@IDanielBlake as well as in new Slack versions, lol.

// although, looks like the real source of the issue is in Electron#11106 (like it's mentioned above)

On Linux if you try to change the keyboard layout with Alt + Shift,
the menu will pop up. Shortcuts are needed because Electron opens
the first menu on pressing `Alt` if no hotkey is assigned.

Electron issue electron/electron#28088 is fixed, so we need update Electron to ^13.1.0 to have this bug solved.
